Steel Shots S-390

Steel shot size S-390 refers to a specific grade of abrasive particles used in industrial applications such as shot blasting and surface preparation. The “S” in S-390 denotes that it is a steel shot, while the number 390 indicates its nominal diameter in micrometers. In the case of S-390, the average diameter of the steel shot particles is around 0.390 millimeters. This size is chosen based on the desired impact energy and coverage for the particular application. S-390 steel shots are known for their durability, high impact resistance, and ability to efficiently remove contaminants, rust, and scale from various surfaces. These qualities make S-390 a popular choice in industries where consistent and effective surface treatment is crucial, such as in metal fabrication, automotive, and shipbuilding.
